[00:03:40] airlines. Baghdad said it's in contact now with Washington to
[00:03:44] exclude
[00:03:45] of several Iraqi airports from the measures linked to new sanctions. The
[00:03:48] of deputy speaker of Burox Parliament also slamed as hasty and
[00:03:52] unprofessional a banned a these passenger flights.
[00:03:55] The iraxy resistance
[00:03:56] of groups have also weighed in with the Nijaba movement warning of. airport
[00:04:00] sidens if flights do not resume with Tehran Basir movement says closing

[00:04:12] support Iran
[00:04:13] of economically encounter what it calls a siege on
[00:04:16] terron.
[00:04:23] of
[00:04:28] a
[00:04:40] and of welcome everyone to Press TV's news review program where we get in depth in
[00:04:44] of one
[00:04:44] of the days top stories. Iran's foreign minister
[00:04:48] Islam sanctions imposed on the Islamic Republic saying that such
[00:04:52] unilateral measures amount economic
[00:04:57] of terrorism. of unil coercive measures. continue to be used as
[00:05:01] as instruments of political pressure against
[00:05:04] developing countries. Iran has faced such measures for
[00:05:08] decades and they have intensified in recent years and
[00:05:11] months. US sanctions directly affect the daily lives
[00:05:15] of our people by restricting
[00:05:18] trade, finance, medicines, technology,
[00:05:21] education and scientific cooperation. From our
[00:05:25] perspective, their devastating impact on ordinary people
[00:05:28] amounts economic terrorism. The United Nations must
[00:05:32] oppose such coercive measures and call for their
[00:05:36] complete and unconditional
[00:05:38] removal.
[00:05:42] made the remarks a un meeting a China's global development initiative, he said Iran
[00:05:46] defended its sovereignty against US-Israely attacks stressing at the
[00:05:50] international community must condemn the war crimes against the Iranian
[00:05:53] nation. I actually cited US Israely attacks a school
[00:05:56] in the Iranian city of Minab, a sports hall and la mer and a medical
[00:06:00] research pasture institute in Tehran saying all these facilities for
[00:06:04] education, sports and medicine were reduced to rubble. He says such attacks
[00:06:08] expos the inhumane nature the US aggression and must
[00:06:12] never. normalized or whitewash. Iran's four minister said over
[00:06:15] 5,000 people, including women and children were killed in US-Israeli
[00:06:19] aggression. She said the assassination the leader the Islamic
[00:06:22] Revolution and Iran senior political and military officials
[00:06:25] is heinous crime and flagrant violation of international
[00:06:29] law.
[00:06:33] And I join us for the program, Mr. Veza, the academic and
[00:06:37] researcher and author, I should say out of Moscot, and
[00:06:40] also one of our Press TV colleagues.
[00:06:42] here in our tehran uh studios, gentlemen, pleasure to have you both with us,
[00:06:46] rezo, we're going to start with you out there in the Omani capital, great to
[00:06:50] check in with you pal, your thoughts, there's a bunch of things Iran's foreign
[00:06:54] minister said from unlawful attacks on on
[00:06:58] civilian infrastructure, the massacre of numbers of civilians, but
[00:07:02] I wonded you if you could weigh in on the part about economic terrorism, because we heard this
[00:07:06] from a couple of Iranian foreign ministers now that these sanctions against the
[00:07:09] country are targeting everyday people, the... the children, the
[00:07:13] elderly, why is it called economic terrorism from your
[00:07:15] perspective? so this campaign the united
[00:07:19] states to pressure iran using sanctions goes back to the
[00:07:23] beginning the Islamic revolution in Iran, so for 47
[00:07:26] years Iran has managed to build a society
[00:07:30] uh facing sanctions from not just the United States, but its
[00:07:34] allies and those countries that follow the sanctions, for example the
[00:07:38] countries that are at the moment not allowing Iranian planes
[00:07:42] to... land in their airports, I myself was going to travel to
[00:07:45] Iran on Wednesday, but my flight got cancelled, I'm not part the government, I have
[00:07:49] nothing to do with the government, I'm not associated with any government at all, and so these
[00:07:53] sanctions are not designed to hurt the government, they're designed to put pressure on the people
[00:07:57] themselves, they're designed to uh frustrate
[00:08:00] the uh, they are designed to frustrate the Iranian
[00:08:04] citizens, but they are born out the frustration by the United
[00:08:08] States, because United States has played almost all the...
[00:08:12] cars that it has from military, from previous sanctions
[00:08:16] and blockade, and nothing seems to work, it doesn't nothing
[00:08:19] brings to the Iranian nation to their knees, so this
[00:08:23] is tactic that just demonstrates how desperate the
[00:08:27] United States is, and it won't work, and if you look at every single
[00:08:31] plan down the years that they have come together to try to
[00:08:35] put pressure on Iran, almost all them have backfired to the
[00:08:39] extent where they are detrimental to the uh to the US
[00:08:43] empire, they have because the attack on Iran, all their
[00:08:46] bases in the region are destroyed, because
[00:08:49] the economic sanctions they have
[00:08:53] placed on Iran, Iran has become a self-sustaining
[00:08:56] society, if any the neighbors in the west Asia
[00:09:00] had this kind of sanctions and blockade that Iran had had for just one or
[00:09:04] two years, those societies will collapse, but if you go to Iran as much as there
[00:09:08] is problems, you can go to the supermarket, there's everything made in Iran,
[00:09:11] vehicles made. Iran, the buildings are made in Iran, yes,
[00:09:15] obviously the lack of trade has impeted the growth, because
[00:09:19] Iranian society, first they're one the most educated in the world,
[00:09:22] second, Iran has large quantity of resources, it should be one the
[00:09:26] richest and wealthiest countries in the world, it is in many ways, but we're talking about
[00:09:30] the superficial material way that the west
[00:09:34] sees everything, but because the sanctions is not permitted to grow, you
[00:09:38] just recently on on your own press TV website, I saw this
[00:09:42] the one
[00:09:42] stem cell treatment that Iran
[00:09:45] indigenously has developed, not many countries are able to do what Iran is
[00:09:49] doing with all these pressures, so I think we have to also bear in mind as much as the
[00:09:53] pressures are harming Iranians, they're not sustainable, because many countries
[00:09:57] will eventually have to start cooperating with Iran again,
[00:10:01] thanks reza and we have time for we have kind of a
[00:10:04] short program today, I'm going to give one question to
[00:10:06] you wrap
[00:10:07] it up, as why not call it economic
[00:10:11] regime or economic... consequences,
[00:10:13] measures or um repercussions, why this
[00:10:17] extreme label economic
[00:10:19] terrorism, actually
[00:10:21] it is called economic terrorism by the Iranian. minister as he
[00:10:25] said, it is economic terrorism because they are pushing even the
[00:10:29] third party, the third countries to follow up their coressive
[00:10:33] measures, and i have to say that given the geographical position of your one and
[00:10:37] the market that the country has compared with the economy that we are having in this
[00:10:41] region, these kind of corressive measures, i can say
[00:10:45] that they are doom to failure because here we have iran with kind of
[00:10:49] extensive land border with the neighboring countries and the us
[00:10:52] regime cannot impose sanctions on Iran and the other countries to follow up their
[00:10:56] coerssive measures and following up kind of
[00:10:59] unilateralism and pushing for further the US
[00:11:03] bullying and the Washington regime bullying policy around the world and as the
[00:11:07] Iranian forem minister said that the country is looking for the
[00:11:10] multilateralism and the country, I mean the Islamic Republic of
[00:11:14] Iran as I told you the shared interest and the benefits that
[00:11:18] it has compared with the countries in the region and the
[00:11:22] interconnectedness the economy of Iran and the market. that it has with the
[00:11:25] regional states, it pushes into the
[00:11:29] position that we can say these economic course of measures the US regime
[00:11:33] can be failed because you cannot imagine the markets
[00:11:37] the regional countries without just an example I can say the
[00:11:40] agricultural products of Iran in terms the quality and in terms
[00:11:44] of price that we have proven that the economy that we have and the
[00:11:48] interdependentness the countries in this region to Iran's position
[00:11:52] in terms of trade and economy geography. tech and economically
[00:11:56] uh all in all they make the coursive measures the US regime to be
[00:12:00] failed thanks gentlemen yeah measures that basically impact more
[00:12:04] civilian life than anything us and i'm glad that
[00:12:08] mentioned the dramatic advancements Iran has made with his hands tied over the past
[00:12:11] decades gentlemen pleasure to have you both on there joining us out of
[00:12:15] moscott joining us out of our tehran studios thank you both and say safe to the
[00:12:19] both of you and viewers that's it for your news review program thanks for tuning in and bye-bye
[00:12:23] for now.
[00:12:36] When Iraq invaded Iran in 1980, Said Ali
[00:12:39] Khamani went to the frontlines, but as the war
[00:12:43] entered its second year, his role
[00:12:46] changed, from battlefield visits to the
[00:12:49] presidency, from military coordination to international
[00:12:53] diplomacy, he became part of Iran's wartime
[00:12:56] leadership. This is the story of his
[00:13:00] eight-year journey through the Iran-Iraq
[00:13:03] war.
[00:13:19] Welcome back everyone, you're watching Press TV world news. Now we're approaching the second anniversary
[00:13:23] the martidom, thisbullah. For more than three
[00:13:27] decades nastralian led resistance movement and guided the Lebanese people through some the
[00:13:31] most difficult times in confronting US Israele belligerance in his life and
[00:13:35] sacrifice left lasting lessons for those who resist
[00:13:37] oppression.
[00:13:51] Two years after his martur them the image of Hezballahchi.
[00:13:55] Sayyad Hasan Nasaralah remains deeply embedded in Lebanon's
[00:13:59] political and military history, his legacy and
[00:14:02] discourse also remain inspirational for those resisting the
[00:14:06] Israeli occupation and atrocities in the region.
[00:14:10] Martyre nastralast speeches increasingly portrayed the
[00:14:13] Lebanese resistance, not simply as a military force, but as
[00:14:17] national
[00:14:18] struggle.
[00:14:22] Resistance is non-negotiable.
[00:14:24] It is. is not open for compromise, reconsideration,
[00:14:28] rethinking or reflection, no matter the cost or
[00:14:31] sacrifice. NASA's words resonated with
[00:14:34] people's grievances, beliefs and hopes for the future.
[00:14:38] They gave ordinary people a sense of agency in hope in
[00:14:42] contrast to the politically driven speeches of many
[00:14:45] autocratic Arab leaders. In July
[00:14:49] 2006, Hezbollah captured two Israeli soldiers in
[00:14:53] cross-border operation. Israel responded with a month
[00:14:57] long war that devastated large parts of Lebanon and displaced
[00:15:01] hundreds of thousands of people. Throughout the 33-day
[00:15:04] war, nastral law's televised addresses became a constant
[00:15:08] feature the battle. After the seasfire, when he appeared
[00:15:12] publicly in Beirut, hundreds of thousands gathered to hear him
[00:15:16] speak. This is the victory
[00:15:20] the real Lebanon, the victory the real people of Lebanon and
[00:15:24] all the loyal people. in this country, almost the day after
[00:15:28] Israel's genocidal war on Gaza began in October
[00:15:31] 2023, Hezbollah carried out the retaliatory
[00:15:35] strike, the Lebanese resistance movement realized what happened
[00:15:39] in Gaza was not a passing event, but rather a political
[00:15:43] and military earthquake in West Asia. The decision to
[00:15:46] join the support front was made to preserve the principles and
[00:15:50] ideas the resistance discourse. Sayid Hasan
[00:15:54] Nasrallah wowed that Lebanon will make the ultimate
[00:15:57] sacrifice in defense the
[00:15:59] Palestinians.
[00:16:04] In the name the murders, the wounded, the ones who lost. their eyes and
[00:16:08] palms, and in the name of every person who has taken on the responsibility of
[00:16:12] supporting Gaza, we tell Netanyahu and Gallant, the Lebanese
[00:16:15] front will not stop until the war on Gaza ends. A year
[00:16:19] later, he fulfilled that wow with his blood. He was
[00:16:23] assassinated by Israel in Beirot along with number of his
[00:16:27] companions. Nasaralah's funeral in the Lebanese
[00:16:30] Capital became one the largest in Lebanon's recent
[00:16:34] history. The massive turnout offer the visual.
[00:16:37] testament to the loyalty he commanded and the political and symbolic
[00:16:41] weight he had accumulated over decades. Today,
[00:16:45] Lebanon's political sin remains turbulent, considering vicious
[00:16:49] plots hatched by the United States and Israel to disarm
[00:16:52] Hezbollah. The Lebanese Resistance, however, is vigilant and won't
[00:16:56] allow enemies implement their plans. According to
[00:16:59] Hazbullah Secretary general, Sheikh Naim Qasem, resistance
[00:17:03] is the only way for confronting global arrogance in Israel.
[00:17:11] Rock is held a ceremony to honor the memory of late as well as secretary of
[00:17:15] general on the occasion of second mortidom

[00:25:57] town in Siri County, hormos gone province, families were getting
[00:26:00] ready for a wedding and for new clothes, seeing the bride and
[00:26:04] groom, music and laughter and children playing among their
[00:26:08] relatives, but at around 9 o'clock on September 1st, a
[00:26:12] US military attack on the wedding ceremony changed everything
[00:26:16] a matter of seconds. the explosion filled the wedding venue with
[00:26:20] smoke and rubble, music and laughter gave way to screams and
[00:26:24] cries. in the attack carried out by us force, five people were
[00:26:28] killed and nearly 70 were injured. one of
[00:26:32] those killed was four-year-old boy named Amir Ali Kharimi. Amir
[00:26:36] Ali had not gone to war. He had gone to a wedding. That day he
[00:26:39] had taken a bath, fix his hair and could hardly contain his
[00:26:43] excitement about going to the celebration. His mother was
[00:26:47] supposed to leave a little later with him and the rest the family, but
[00:26:51] Amir Ali, his 14-year-old sister Kiana and several other
[00:26:55] children left early. A few minutes later, the explosion
[00:26:58] happened. Amir Ali's mother later said there was a
[00:27:01] terrible. sound, everything was filled with smoke, my heart sank, ran
[00:27:05] into the street and started looking for my children, but she could not find
[00:27:09] aim aliana, through the smoke and dust, she had only
[00:27:13] one question, where are my children? then the phone rang, they
[00:27:17] told me your son has been killed, Amir Ali, the youngest child
[00:27:21] in the family, was no longer among the injured, his
[00:27:25] body had been taken to the hospital within the first few
[00:27:28] minutes, so quickly that his mother did not even have the...
[00:27:32] chanced to hold her son one last time, but Canana had
[00:27:36] survived. Sharpnel had wounded her and she was taken to the hospital.
[00:27:39] Doctors saved her life, but the wound she brought home was not
[00:27:43] only a physical one. Kiano had witnessed her little
[00:27:47] brother's final moments. Her mother says that
[00:27:50] even while she was injured herself. Kyana kept crying and saying, "I saw
[00:27:54] blood coming from Amir Ali's head. I saw him fall to the
[00:27:58] ground. Now this mother must learn to live without the little boy.
[00:28:02] who filled their home with his energy, the child who was
[00:28:06] supposed to start preschool this year, the home that was supposed to be
[00:28:10] filled with laughter and memories after the wedding
[00:28:14] is now missing one voice, Amid Ali's voice, and
[00:28:18] perhaps the hardest question in his grief is this, a child who
[00:28:22] only wanted to go to a wedding and play with his relatives
[00:28:25] children, why did his last night have to be spent among
[00:28:29] smoke, sharp no, blood and tears?
